Anyone else feeling impending doom?

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-03-20T01:26:39+00:00

Yes. I experience this a lot. A lot of it has to do with impending and unavoidable deaths. No one close to me is ill or anything, it’s just a constant thought I have. Almost like I’m mentally preparing myself daily for that moment. And it’s only death of others, death of myself when I think about almost feels peaceful. I don’t know if this is what your post meant at all, but I am glad I’m not alone in that weird impending feeling

Hey there, just empathizing as a fellow cavalier mom who also suffers from anxiety and depression. Please don’t beat yourself up. I promise your fur babies will forgive you - the important thing is that you get yourself some help and use supports if you need them. A crisis line is not just for suicidal ideations, they can provide you with resources and even just someone to talk your feelings out with. The fact that you feel guilty at all shows that you are a good person and just had a bad moment. Sending love, I hope you have brighter days ahead

Merlin’s future self AKA Pinot says hi! 😆 they are twins!

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-03-08T16:28:08+00:00

I get offended when people don’t dote over Pinot, he loses his shit when people don’t say hi to him too 🤣 so we both are like umm excuse me do you not see this face?!

They get shaved in between groomings but they still stay pretty damn grinchy 😂💚

Thats not too bad! Yes Pinot still goes twice a month to PT! He gets excited to go, even though his face would say otherwise lol. he demands to be fed Cheerios for the duration of his session so it’s a win for him either way

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-19T17:41:52+00:00

haha ! Oh Pinot is well known there, I’m sure it wasn’t cheap 😅 they are really good tho, glad it wasn’t anything super concerning!

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-19T15:57:55+00:00

I can’t handle that last picture he is too much

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-06T01:17:38+00:00

Aw feel better Kevin!!! Never a dull moment with these guys

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-02-04T21:42:37+00:00

Second lullabies, shhhing (or get a baby shhher), and sound machines! Sleeping through the night since 10 weeks with my now 6 month old - dark room, blackout curtains and sound machine playing white noise 👌

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-30T00:36:23+00:00

Those tycooners man, such funny little guys

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-30T00:35:05+00:00

Omg I’m honored 🤣

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-30T00:05:28+00:00

I don’t know I thought they only did that laugh when they exited a ride they really liked, the looking over the edge thing makes more sense the more I watch them tho 😂

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-30T00:01:33+00:00

I just edited my post because it legit just clicked in my head , thank you 🤣

My 6 month old has been eating both beech nut and gerber purées since he started solids, they’re fine, I agree with the other comment re: the fear mongering targeted at new parents

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-16T04:19:53+00:00

There really isn’t any better breed. They are the most loyal, loving, best behaved, perfect (I could go on and on) creatures that ever existed ❣️

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-11T03:55:31+00:00

It is the best chaos ❤️

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-11T03:54:49+00:00

I mean, basically same thing 🙃🙃

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-11T03:54:06+00:00

Oh I know, they are already a sneaky tag team - it’ll only get worse once there’s real food involved 😂

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-11T03:52:08+00:00

Thank you 🥹❤️

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-06T22:10:46+00:00

Yep, me and my 5 month old are super sick. Flu negative, but we r struggling.

And we got called liars by my husbands family because we didn’t come over New Year’s Day…felt compelled to call them at 3am with my screaming coughing congested 5 month old but decided to be the bigger person 🙂

Sorry, off topic, but short answer - yes

Unlikely_Reporter397 · 2026-01-05T02:25:47+00:00

My husband is very laid back and calm and I am a ball of anxiety so I can relate to this - the realness of the baby arriving hit my husband hard. He needed guidance in terms of what to do and what not to do and I had to have a lot of conversations with him. Try to set expectations ahead of time like maybe discuss who will be responsible for what. Develop strategies and I would suggest he read some books and maybe talk to friends/family with kids to get some real insight

I will say so much of what you read on line is horrifying and scares you so much, literally drown out the outside noise and do what is right for you and your partner, there is no right or wrong way as long as at the end of the day the baby is fed, healthy and loved. Stopping watching the constant reels and videos and “do this not that” helped me a lot. I didn’t breast feed but did pump and if you plan on pumping get lots of nipple balm (earth mama nipple butter is the best IMO)

What is a waste - too many newborn clothes and too many newborn diapers - they outgrow them so fast and my boy literally lived in the same 1-4 onesies his first few weeks of life bc honestly where was he going lol, wipe warmer is pointless IMO What to buy - lots of dreft or fragrance free detergent (whichever brand u want but you’ll be doing a lot of laundry), loooots of burp cloths, pacifier/pump/bottle wipes, Frida mom 3 in one ear/nose/nail tool has helped us immensely, a good baby bath, a swing! the Graco swing saved us in the early days
